Yep.... if it says dual standard it should work... pretty sure there are
only 2 standards...... :S I'm pretty sure that it depends on what area
you're in, depends which type of CID you get ...... BT always uses the
BT standard, but I think different cable co's areas have one or the other.

(ok that was a bit confusing and not very clear.....!)

What I'd recommend..... get Telewest to enable caller id on your line
(might be instant or might be several days.... get them to tell you the
max time it will take) go to Argos, buy a CID unit. If it works, great,
if it doesn't, use the 16 day moneyback, buy another one, rinse and
repeat till you get one that works....!
